The Importance of Proper Wine Storage

For wine aficionados, proper storage of wine is paramount for extracting the best possible flavor and aroma to enjoy. In order for wine to be stored in optimum condition, there are some essential elements which must be present.

Temperature

Ideal wine storage temperatures should range between 10-13°C. Temperatures that are too low can slow down the aging process, while too high temperatures can cause the wine to spoil. It's important to maintain consistent temperatures, as large fluctuations can cause the cork to expand and contract. This could lead to air entering the bottle and accelerate spoilage.

Humidity

It is important to maintain relative humidity within the storage space, as a too dry environment can cause the cork to dry out. This will then allow air to enter the bottle and spoil the wine. The ideal humidity should be between 50-70% relative humidity.

Light

Wine should be kept in dark environments in order to prevent it from being exposed to too ligh. Direct sunlight can cause a chemical reaction to occur, bleaching out color and flavor, and potentially degrading the quality of the wine.

Vibration

Wines shouldn't be exposed to intense vibration or movement as it can disrupt the maturation process. For this reason, wine cellars and wine cabinets are better suited than storing wine in a home refrigerator.

Conclusion

In conclusion, proper wine storage is essential for obtaining the best results when it comes to flavor and aroma. It is important to ensure that your wine is stored in a dark, humid, vibration-free environment where temperatures are kept between 10-13°C.
